The MTFR is proud to sponsor a Co-Op career building opportunity to these three Muhlenberg High School Seniors.

Chief Moyer was excited to have the opportunity to help get these three into our Firehouse during school hours and help out where needed and help provide knowledge and skill where needed. These 3 are the stepping stone to the future of Co-Op programs for the MTFR.

In cooperation with Muhlenberg EMS, they will be there once a week learning the medical aspect of the job.
